I look forward to serving Pope Benedict XVI in his mission.Writing on The challenge for the Church in a digital culture, Msgr Tighe wrote "The generalized and uncritical social reception of the tenets of relativism finds particular expression in the digital world where the sheer volume of information and opinion, much of it contradictory, can lead to an almost resigned acceptance that it is meaningless to speak of truth and objectivity. In the face of so much assertion, argument and counter argument, it is difficult to decide where real authority and expertise resides".On the 9th of July 2014 he was appointed to serve as secretary on the Committee for Vatican media.
